We have some exciting news from our cross country team. Yesterday, our runners teamed up with Van Wert Middle School in Ohio for a fun run. While we're still waiting for the final results, we want to give a special shout-out to Shae K and Brena V, who logged the biggest LOG of the day with help from 10 of their awesome teammates. Way to go, team!

And here's some great news - it's not too late to join the cross country adventure! We're looking for one more boy to make our team official. If you're interested in being part of this fantastic group and staying active, now's your chance. Come talk to Coach Snyder.  

Remember, whether you're running or cheering, we're all part of the same team.

Tomorrow  is dress like a genius day and Friday is Homecoming so wear your OE spirit wear.  Come on out to the parade to support your team but remember that you are not able to wait after school at the school.

It’s Hump Day and we now have the inspirational quote of the week to get you over the hump:

Quote:

That doesn’t have to be big things like becoming a pro basketball player, it could be as small as finishing that worksheet for math or learning all your vocab words, any obstacle is worth overcoming and makes you stronger!

Have a wonderful Wednesday everybody!  We’re halfway there so let’s make the rest of this week really count!
